Money tossed around is an understatement.
$800,000 was spent to build a "water park" next to the Middle School off Bangs
Avenue.
That's -- Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars -- for a restroom, a couple of spray
heads and
a fence that's locked most of the time. All on a plot about 50x50 in size.
Public funds no less. $400,000 green acres grant and $400,000 loan that the
taxpayers
are paying back
For that kind of money a self perpetuating trust or endowment could have been
set up to
take care of recreation in pertpetuety.
